sad death poem

do you think, my boy, when i put my arms around you
those on the top say they know you, earth-they are liars
i said, i have shut my heart
where shall i find you
by the shore, by the sea
to what shall a woman liken her beloved
and breaketh bread no more
when freedom from her mountain height
rising moon has hid the stars
the lightning flashed, and lifted
why then, must we see?
weak-winged is song
i am singing to you
